I got "Sandbox: The Music of Mark Sandman" in the mail today, so I'm digging that.

Today I have been mostly digging all the suggestions you lovely people made in my thread. Also, Bloc Party.

I just went out and bought 4 cds w/ xmas money, so I'm in the process of listening to each one.
Husker Du- New Day Rising
Sonic Youth- Evol
My Bloody Valentine- Isnt Anything
Pixies- Surfer Rosa

I got Weezer's S/T for $5 yesterday.

Blue or Green?

Blue, I mean.

Good.

Aphex Twin: Selected Ambient Works

That's all I can list by him because that album (2 disc set) set me back by 24 bucks. It's worth it though, each CD's just about set to the limit, both clocking out around 80 minutes. Really good stuff, all mellow music.

I need some help finding new stuff. Right now I'm digging The Flaming Lips (all except their 80's stuff, I just can't get into it), Sigur Ros, Radiohead, and Beck. Any suggestions? I've been considering getting Agaetis Byrjun (and most likely will), not too interested in Beck's Stereopathic Soulmanure, so basically not interested in any suggestions for the bands that've been listed. I also listen to Modest Mouse, Bright Eyes, Weezer, Built to Spill, The White Stripes, and Pixies. I'm not interested in Muse, Dinosaur Jr., Sonic Youth, The Mars Volta, The Smiths, Interpol, Franz Ferdinand, The Shins, or Death Cab for Cutie. Any suggestions?

P.S.- Please excuse the pickiness.

Try Mansun - Wide Open Space, or Legacy. If you like, try and get hold of the album Six.

And Haven - Till The End, and Say Something are awesome songs. However, I can't recommend an album since I only have one and I have yet to listen to it.

Of course, I'll recommend The Afghan Whigs too, but you probably already knew that. And if Odelay's your bag, get Paul's Boutique by the Beasties.

$3.99 at HMV? :thumb:

Since my soundcard is dead, and I now have a portable CD player to listen to music much more often, I've been stuck listening to albums I already own.

Especially Beulah, Mars Volta, Calexico, Pinback, Kayo Dot, Fant/o\mas, Masterdone...

It's been ages since I've discovered any new bands. :(

Today I love Beck.

I'm trying to download "Revolver" off Soulseek because I got it on vinyl, which is badas[i]s[/i], unless I want to listen to it away from home. It was my first vinyl. Not bad?

I saw OK Computer on vinyl today. Fifty-two dollars.

I really don't get the whole "buying vinyl" thing.

I don't really either. I just got "Revolver" because it has a badas[i]s[/i] cover and it was just a bit over half the price of the cd version.

That's f[SIZE=2]uc[/SIZE]king ludicrous.

Unless you have some wierd currency and $52 is not that much. :-*

It's $52 Australian, which is about $40 US. So yeah, it's insane.

DJ Shadow still, and Beastie Boys - Hello Nasty, and Coheed and Cambria - IKSOSE:3

im starting to like this band called Simian. Theyre funny looking.

Saw a great show last night.

Pluto, Goodshirt & Goldenhorse > You guys.

Wow, why did nobody ever tell me about Fischerspooner before?? Just began listening to them, and they are absolutely amazing. Are their any Fischerspooner fans here??

Podgeway is my dig of choice.

The best thing about being home alone all day is you can blast death metal and no one complains. I've been pumping out:

Cryptopsy
Gorguts
Mithras
BTBAM
Mastodon

Fun! I've also been listening to Bowie, The Beatles, Frank Zappa and The Radio Dept. I'm about to listen to Dalek.
